hmm well considering your exhaust and what not is running through your<U> header</U> it should get hot.. its not bad

you could thermal wrap it and it should keep the temp down a few degrees but i dont think it looks very pretty.....






MAKE A HOLE WHERE?????

usually people dont change thier header unless it has cracks or they just want a new one.....


no your header wont over heat. and where would it make a hole?

you have a HEADER not plural.. your running a 4cyl motor not a 6cyl or 8cyl

Heat wrap sucks fat dick. Get it Jet Hot coated or blasted with some other thermal barrier and you won't have to worry about it rusting or heating up too much. Heat wrap traps moisture against the metal and rusts the **** out of things prematurely.
